Cosmetic Dental Services We Offer

Cosmetic dentistry doesn’t utilize a one-size-fits-all approach. When you are ready to change the appearance of your smile, our cosmetic dentist, Dr. Kusek, will work closely with you to determine which treatments will align with your goals and deliver the results you want. Our services include:

Porcelain veneersVeneers are thin porcelain shells that are bonded to the surface of the teeth to correct gaps, crowding, staining, and asymmetry of the teeth. 
‍Same-day ceramic crownsWith same-day ceramic crowns, fillings, and restorations, you don’t have to wait weeks and attend several appointments to get the smile you want. Address cracked, damaged, or chipped teeth in just one visit. 
‍Tooth whiteningBrighten your smile with professional tooth whitening. We offer both in-office whitening treatments and custom take-home trays to deliver the results you want with the method that fits your lifestyle and schedule. 
‍Implanted-supported smile restorationsWhen you need a major smile transformation to replace missing teeth and restore your confidence, we can plan your treatment with dental implants.

Customize Your Care with Digital Smile Design

At CHS Dental, we believe that the right technology can make all the difference in the quality of your care. That’s why we utilize Digital Smile Design, which allows you to preview the results of your treatment for more detailed, effective treatment planning. During your cosmetic dentistry consultation, we’ll use Digital Smile Design to map out your smile as it is now and identify key areas of concern. We’ll then walk through your specific treatment goals and show you how each treatment will help you achieve those goals. It can be difficult to visualize the results of several cosmetic dental treatments that work in tandem to transform your smile. Digital Smile Design gives you a clear picture, so you know exactly what to expect.

Cosmetic Dentistry in One Visit: In-House Milling and 3D Printing

While some cosmetic treatments will require multiple visits, others can be completed in a single visit to enhance your comfort and fit into your busy schedule. We have CAD/CAM milling, 3D printing, and digital scanning technology all on site, so you can get crowns, fillings, and other restorations in just one appointment. There’s no messy impressions, no temporaries, and no downtime.

Why Patients Choose CHS Dental

Unlike corporate dental chains where you might see a different dentist every time you schedule an appointment, CHS Dental is owned and led by our sole cosmetic dentist, Dr. Kusek. Dr. K holds a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree and continues to pursue advanced training to provide modern, evidence-based care. He takes the time to get to know every patient and inform them about their treatment options, so you will always know exactly what to expect from your care. Dr. K also holds the distinction of being a Fellow of the Academy of General Dentistry. Only about 6% of dentists in the U.S. and Canada are FAGDs.

Enhancing Your Comfort During Treatment

Because Dr. Kusek is certified in IV sedation, we are able to offer a wider range of sedation options for your treatment, including nitrous oxide, twilight sedation, and full IV sedation.

Serving Mount Pleasant, Charleston, and the East Cooper Area

If you have been looking for a cosmetic dentist in Mount Pleasant or the greater Charleston area, you will find the full range of care here in one place: veneers, same-day ceramic restorations, and digital smile design, all planned and completed by Dr. Kusek in our office rather than sent out to an off-site lab. We welcome patients from throughout East Cooper, including Isle of Palms, Sullivan's Island, and Daniel Island, as well as those making the drive from Charleston, West Ashley, and the surrounding communities. Many of our patients come to us after years of rotating between providers or being handed off between offices for different procedures. Because Dr. Kusek is the owner and sole dentist here, you will see the same person at every visit, and we will take the time to explain each step before we begin.

Cosmetic Dentistry FAQs

What does a cosmetic dentist do?

A cosmetic dentist provides specialized dental treatments to enhance the appearance and function of your smile. Treatments may include porcelain veneers, ceramic crowns, and teeth whitening.

Can I see what my smile will look like before treatment starts?

Yes. Using Digital Smile Design, we can provide you with a preview of your treatment results before we perform a single procedure.

Does cosmetic dental work hurt? Can I be sedated?

Cosmetic dental work is generally well tolerated by patients. You can be sedated during treatment, and local anesthesia will numb any areas of treatment to minimize any pain or discomfort. We will also provide detailed aftercare instructions to help you manage any pain or swelling following your treatment. Using advancements like same-day crowns, CHS Dental further reduces your potential discomfort by shortening treatment timelines and ensuring the most accurate, targeted care possible.

Does insurance cover cosmetic dentistry?

Most dental insurance plans consider cosmetic dentistry procedures to be elective, so they do not cover the costs of care. However, some cosmetic dental work may offer functional benefits, making them more essential for a healthy smile. Our office can request pre-authorization from your insurance provider to calculate your out-of-pocket expenses for your desired treatments.

How much does a smile makeover cost in the Charleston area?

The cost of your smile makeover will depend on the specific treatments needed to achieve your goals. We will provide a detailed estimate following your initial consultation.
